Whether you want to capture spontaneous street performances and bustling city markets, or capture breathtaking scenery and sunsets, the PowerShot SX730 HS will be your perfect travel companion, “promises the producer.

The latest compact Canon superzoom comes with a 1 / 2.3-inch CMOS sensor and a 20.3-megapixel CMOS sensor, which is supported by the DIGIC 6 image processor. This will enable us to capture images at ISO sensitivity of 80-1600 at about 6 fps. ./s. The wide angle lens with optical stabilization and 40x optical zoom – equivalent to 24-960 mm for the full frame. For this we also get an 80x zoom ZoomPlus. So in the frame we should be able to capture a wide range of shots, as well as impressive close-ups with rich details. In turn, fast action autofocus is needed to capture sharp action, which requires only 0.12 seconds to focus.

What happens when competitors have access to available components in very limited quantities, some months before the release of their flagship ? This is the dilemma facing Asus in believing a recent report.

Asus is beginning to be affected by the supply problems facing Qualcomm for its latest chip, the Snapdragon 835. It refuses to adopt the same strategy as LG, to equip its flagship phone with a chip of last year , the Snapdragon 821 (which is an optimization of the 820).

The choices of the Taiwanese manufacturer are therefore rather small. It must wait for the second batch of the latest Qualcomm chips, which means delaying the release of Zenfone 4 and losing potential market shares, or maintaining its forecast schedule and switching to the competition.

MediaTek: savior or spare wheel?

Asus is seriously considering buying from Qualcomm’s competitor MediaTek. The decision is not yet taken, but the day of presentation of the Zenfone 4 is fast approaching, which puts Asus in an uncomfortable situation.

If Asus decides to buy from MediaTek, there is no doubt that it will equip the ZenFone 4 with a Helio X30, the most powerful chip of the Taiwanese founder. Engraved in 10 nm, like the Snapdragon 835, it should offer performance sufficiently for the users.

An out of stock orchestrated?

The Snapdragon 835 is a chip of promise. And it’s not the Windows 10 porting on it that will make us lie. It is undoubtedly the most coveted Qualcomm chip since the Snapdragon 810 failed.

And Samsung took advantage of its position as a partner to negotiate with Qualcomm a large share of production for the very promising Samsung Galaxy S8 . Xiaomi could also have done better by negotiating with Qualcomm to be served among the first manufacturers. Xiaomi can rely on its sales history to seduce Qualcomm, which is forced to drop its other customers, time to compose a second production.

According to some lines of code identified by the biggest fans of the brand, the application would win 2 new features soon: change a number account easily, and share its location with its close relatives. Two features that have been waiting for a long time, and that should soon be released.

Who still uses SMS? If not to discuss with their parents less computer-aware, the youth has massively turned to the various instant discussion applications available on the Play Store.

An understandable movement since these are much more adapted to the new types of communication they use. While Messenger has gone over 1.2 billion users , WhatsApp (which has passed it a long time ago) will soon be up to date.

Share your location and change numbers on WhatsApp

Indeed, the binbuzz community has dug the latest beta versions of the application, and discovered that the number change will evolve soon. Specifically, the feature was discovered on the Windows Phone version, and allows to send a general message to its contacts to prevent them.

Another feature: sharing your live location will soon be possible, and will allow you to leave the possibility to a discussion group or a simple friend to find you when they want:

Just like Google Maps live location sharing , you can of course make it stop automatically after a certain time. The goal is not to be able to track you when you want, but simply to allow others to follow your route.

It seems that this famous functionality is more and more requested: one no longer counts the applications that integrate it these days. To believe that the many GPS on Android is no longer enough: now your friends are virtually on the road with you!

http://www.leetdaily.com/2017/04/28/facebook-launch-first-virtual-reality-application/#respondFri, 28 Apr 2017 03:45:30 +0000http://www.leetdaily.com/?p=322Facebook has finally announced a social virtual reality application and it is called Spaces. The application allows you to chat in a virtual space and browse your memories with your friends.

The VR Oculus was created for the game, but once Facebook has announced its intention to acquire the company specialized in the RV, the trajectory of the company has changed. Of course, Facebook will continue to develop the game, but the long-term vision for Mark Zuckerberg and his team has always been to make the VR a social experience.

At its F8 conference, Facebook launched Facebook Spaces. The application, which requires headphones Oculus Rift with touchscreen controllers, helps users meet friends in “interactive virtual environments”, as if you were all in the same room. Simply select one of your Facebook photos to display a set of virtual options to create your avatar in VR. From there, you can customize the look of your avatar by changing the color of your eyes, for example, or your hairstyle and facial expressions to better match your identity.

In the virtual world, you can draw in the air, share videos and photos to 360 degrees. Users can even take ‘ selfies ‘ with a virtual selfie stick and display the image on Facebook. Facebook said that it was planning to extend it to additional platforms over the coming months. In the meantime, you can download free Spaces of Facebook from the Oculus store.

http://www.leetdaily.com/2017/04/28/google-building-an-ad-blocker-for-chrome/#respondFri, 28 Apr 2017 03:43:37 +0000http://www.leetdaily.com/?p=319Google plans to add an adblocker to Chrome, its web browser. It is a response to the growth of the third-party solutions, such as AdBlock Plus. But risky strategy that could be paid.

Google plans to add an adblocker to Chrome according to the Wall Street Journal, its web browser, and possibly enable it by default for all users. This sound may be a suicidal decision for a company that does the majority of its revenue from advertising, but this seems to be rather a way to fight other ad blockers.

Why join an adblocker?

The binbuzz reports that Google does not like to pay, he often has to do with other blockers such as Adblock Plus, which require money some time to allow Google to add its formats on white lists. This allows Google to ensure that part of its formats are indeed broadcast.

Requirements and the sum requested by these ad blockers have probably become too heavy for the giant. It looks like Google’s decision to develop its OS, Android and Chrome OS, but also its browser, Chrome, not to be dependent on other platforms. The pattern is very similar to that of the market of the ad blockers: Google pays a significant amount of money to be the Web browser’s default search engine, but also bones, like iOS which equips the iPhone and the iPad. What prompted Google to develop its own alternatives, and to impose them on the market.
Why now? Beyond the financial requirements of actors like AdBlock Plus, Google seems to have reached a plateau. Indeed, Chrome widespread adoption by users means that the browser has about half of the market for Web browsers. In February 2017, Chrome displays 62,95% of page views on computer, is much more than on mobile (45.98%) and Tablet (22,26%). But with the explosion of smartphones, particularly Android, and the development of uses on mobile, Chrome adoption should still progress. In France the Google browser was leading the race at 50,38%.
Integrated an adblocker natively in Google Chrome and activate it by default is one of the few options for Google to stop the growth of the third-party options : users will not actively seek a way to block ads during their navigation on the Internet if the most boring ads are already blocked.

A strategy that has already proved its worth : with the Chrome browser, then with the Android system. Of course, this strategy offers many potential pitfalls. As the advertiser itself, if Google has stricter controls on ads, this will certainly draw criticism of the actors of the industry, and may also anti trust monitoring organizations.
According to the binbuzz, the function of advertising blocker would happen in the coming weeks on Chrome.

Go to the App Store, where she is on the front page, to install it.

Update 02/02/2017: Facebook took advantage of an intervention by its vice president of partnerships at the Code Media 2017 conference to formalize the coming arrival of a TV application. It will be launched “soon” on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and connected Samsung televisions, then on other platforms, hopefully on Android TV, in a second.

At the presentation last night of the financial results, Mark Zuckerberg announced thatFacebook is considering in essence to compete with YouTube, Netflix and others .Zuckerberg actually wants people to think about Facebook when they want to watch videos. He joined Spotify , which has been broadcasting television programs for a year, and produces exclusive programs . At this stage, he only talked about episodic content, designed to loyalize Internet users.

But according to the Wall Street Journal , which had revealed information the day before, Facebook would already be in discussions with producers and distributors to acquire television series-type programs, as well as long programs produced specifically for the service.

Facebook would arrive on Apple TV and Android TV

According to several sources “close to the file”, he would also launch an application for televisions used to broadcast these so-called “premium” long-format programs. This application dedicated to multimedia players ( Android TV boxes , Apple TV …) would not allow to consult the photos and the other shares of the news wire, unlike that proposed on Roku, it would serve exclusively to these new videos.

On the other hand, Facebook has already started to improve the visibility of videos of more than 90 seconds in the news feed. These contents will not be reserved for TVs.

From mid-roll to resume strong growth

After becoming ” mobile-first” , Facebook would now aim to become “video-first” . Some of its employees even evoke a future platform of “mobile TV” .

This is for the company to return to strong growth. Facebook has effectively warned in November that it is reaching a plateau, due to lack of room for more advertising in the newswire.

In this context, video advertising is a good vehicle for growth. However, the social network continues to forgo pre-roll , these advertisements broadcast before a video, to favor the mid-roll . Spectators would see 15 seconds of publicity after at least 20 seconds of video, and up to two 30-second breaks for the longest programs.

Facebook wants to protect its users

Tools of this kind appeared on Facebook a few years ago. The social network allows users to report content. Facebook takes to heart this subject, the social network having already dealt with suicides live with Facebook Live.

In order to improve its responsiveness and detect the risky behavior of its users, the company of Mark Zuckerberg tries in the United States an artificial intelligence capable of identifying the sensitive messages on the publications and in the comments. It is the AI ​​that triggers the alert. Facebook then transmits the information to its team dedicated to this type of situation for a quick review. Finally, if it is deemed necessary, the company contacts the persons concerned and advises them to call a help number or friends from their contact list.

This new feature also applies to Facebook Live. When someone shares a live that you think is alarming, you can report it with the “worry” option. Facebook will then directly offer help to the broadcaster in question.

Google had officialized that Google Now’s successor would be available on other devices based on Android TV 6.0 or later.

But Google Assistant will soon be available on other Android 6.0 devices and more , that is to say on smartphones and on tablets too. Upstream of the Google I / O 2017 , which will be held from May 17 to 19, Google took advantage of the presentation of the LG G6 , the first novelty to benefit from it, to announce it.

The Google ticket states that the wizard will “ automatically arrive on eligible Android phones running Android 7.0 Nougat and Android 6.0 Marshmallow with Google Play Services” , without knowing for sure whether “eligible phones” are all Android phones 6.0 and up, or if they are only a selection. Google illustrates anyway its ticket with a Samsung Galaxy S7 , a LG V20 and an HTC 10 .

In any case, Google Assistant will only be available in English in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia, as well as German in Germany. But Google took advantage of the presentation of the LG G6 to announce that it would soon be available in other languages, without further specification at this stage.

A vicious characteristic of Facebook. Just as the network informs you if your interlocutor has read your message , it will indicate to you by three small dots, when the latter is responding to you. This characteristic creates a situation (totally useless and perverse) waiting. One application decided to have fun.

With Godotify , you can make your Facebook contacts tell you that you are writing to them. As soon as they open a conversation with you, the famous points of suspension appear. They disappear only if you uninstall the app. Everyone has grasped how long the joke could become (and heavy) joke? But above all these small points, straight out of the fork of Lucifer, have the power to drive you crazy.

The sign of the unexpected, the infinite and the latent

” The points of suspension are the sign of the latent,” explains Julien Rault, author of the book Poetic of the point of suspension, essay on the sign of the latent . In a Facebook conversation, they announce something that can appear at any time, but we do not know when or what. This creates an expectation that can become a real concern. The longer it is, the more it excites interpretation and can lead to mental exhaustion. ” So, even if you asked “do you like the cancoillotte ?” “To your interlocutor (stupid question, everyone worships), the fact that he puts several minutes, hours or days to answer, can become a source of anguish. Will he simply write “no” or will he, in a pavement beyond the understanding,

Irrational fears, the symbolism of small points of which contributes greatly. “They represent the infinite that opens up all possible. They have an unforeseen dimension, “adds the author. The ellipses are much more than just circles. For the psychological well-being of your friends, do not overdo it: they are demonic.
